Where habitat is joined up enough to work as a network. Context, not a constraint on its own.

3 listed buildings within 150 m

Nearest: Cheerups Cottage, Grade II, 43 m away · 3 Grade II

The site itself is not listed. Listed building consent is needed for work that affects the special interest of a listed building, inside or out, on top of planning permission. Setting can be a consideration for buildings nearby; there is no fixed radius.
